Watching You, Watching Me, Chapter 6 - Endless Dream

[rumielf]

Sleep was managing to elude Alice this night.

The fact that she would be leaving London on the Wonder tomorrow morning might have something to do with it. Traveling to new places was enough to make anyone nervous and excited.

Of course, Benton's reaction when she told him that she would not marry him might also be contributing to her sleeplessness

"He'd raised his hand and for an instant Alice had been positive he was going to strike her. She was too stunned to even flinch and instead just stared at him." Eep! But, he loved her, hmm?

Nice bit of hope here between Alice and Tarrant. It was interesting how they appeared as themselves in the mirror too.

Yep. No matter how much Stayne may have come to love her there is still part of his being that is still the cruel person that he spent most of his life as. That was also the first time he'd ever raised a hand to her as Benton so she was totally caught off guard.

And it happened in just an instant. :)

I'm glad you liked it. :)

Oh, loved loved loved! She finally remembers! The dream scene was so creepy yet also so beautiful.

Can she get off the boat, I wonder, or will she have to struggle to remember for the next several years?
